Hi:

If you have already followed my advice above, very carefully keep loading up by 1/10th of a grain increments until the action will hold open with only one round being feed from the magazine (while watching very carefully for pressure signs). If you can't get the pistol to hold open, within just a few more tenths of a grain, stop and consult a gunsmith!

Will your pistol work with any brand of commercial ammo?

If you think your magazine may have a weak spring, invest in a newly manufacured Mec-Gar (Italian made) magazine. These are the best on the commercial market and work well with most applications.

Take heart, you are experiencing the archtypical Luger Jam!

Keep working!!
